An interesting article about the downside of technology/automation

This is about airplanes, not trains, but it is relevant I think to the discussions we have been having about automated trains:

 Raises a lot of questions about automated trains and in how even with an engineer on board that may have problems. Not anti technology, far from it, just anti the idea that technology itself is a solution, like anything else it has consequences and parameters that should be understood and designing systems that  work with humans, not the other way around.
